NEW gR-CLASS

OPTIMAL PROTECTION OF POWER EQUIPMENT
Thanks to recent technological developments, Ferraz Shawmut today
markets gR-class PROTISTOR® fuses capable of clearing all types of overloads, from low multiples of current ratings up to very high short-circuit
currents. Enhanced performance enables these fuses to provide solutions to many previously unsolved problems in power electronics: protection of cables without the use of additional components, protection
of equipment from fire hazards, selective coordination of different fuses
within a single power distribution installation...

SELECTIVE COORDINATION
aR
gR
gR-class semiconductor fuses can be utilized in association with gI and gG-class
low voltage power distribution fuses of the same current rating, installed upstream. In a “selectively coordinated“ distribution installation, melting is limited
to the fuse associated with the faulted circuit, while upstream fuses remain
intact. This prevents unnecessary down-time due to power blackouts in nonfaulted branches.

aR-CLASS vs. gR-CLASS
FERRAZ SHAWMUT EXPERTISE
aR-class fuses feature a high minimum interrupting current as compared with their current rating. The primary time-current characteristic of aR-class fuses is the CC’ curve,
above which another protection device must
be associated. The gR-class fuse represents
considerably improved performance in semiconductor protection.
gR-class fuses should be used in the design of low voltage equipment and in the protection of
power electronics equipment. Designers can often substitute a gR-class fuse for an aR-class fuse
(10x38, 14x51, 22x58, PSC 000 and 17x49 DIN80 or BS 88-4) but the reverse is not true: an aR
fuse can never replace a gR fuse. Start protecting your new equipment with gR-class fuses today.
The application of gR class fuses, with current ratings less than 100 Amps, offers enhanced protection, safety and reliability, along with reduced risk of replacement errors and assembly costs.
